.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Friday night)
Issued at 155 PM CDT Thu Apr 24 2025

- Low chances for showers and thunderstorms across the Coastal
Plains and Brush Country today.

- Increasing threat of dangerous swimming conditions, a moderate
risk of rip currents is in effect through Friday

Mid-levels have dried out somewhat since yesterday. PWATs from this
mornings sounding at CRP came in at 1.52" which is still above
normal, near the 75th percentile. There is still instability in the
lower to mid-levels with another shortwave moving across the region
today, keeping some low end PoPs in the forecast. Look for 15-20%
chances mainly across the Brush Country. Tonight through the rest of
the period have opted to go with silent PoPs due to lowering PWATs
and limited forcing as we head into the weekend.

Afternoon temperatures today and tomorrow will range in the mid 80s
northeast to the 90s out west but will be a few degrees warmer
tomorrow. Overnight lows will hover around the low to mid 70s
region- wide.

.LONG TERM...
(Saturday through next Wednesday)
Issued at 155 PM CDT Thu Apr 24 2025

Key Messages:

- Rain chances return to South Texas by midweek

- Above normal temperatures expected to persist through next week;
100s possible out west

Expect the region to be under the influence from the aforementioned
mid level ridge that is draped over the region. This will promote
quiet conditions across the region with highs generally in the 80s
and 90s. The NBM ensemble is hinting at a medium to high chance (50-
70%) for temperatures to exceed 100 degrees in the Rio Grande Plains
beginning Monday. This is expected to persist through the remainder
of the week. Conditions will remain mostly dry outside of a low
chance for diurnally driven convection each day with the arrival of
the sea breeze through Tuesday. As the ridge progresses to the east,
expect onshore flow to return with an approaching disturbance to the
north. This will promote moisture return to the region, which will
combine with some embedded shortwaves and moderate instability
leading to a low to medium chance for showers and thunderstorms
Wednesday and Thursday. With this possibility being still days out
however, uncertainties on timing and amounts still remain so be sure
to check back for future updates.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1002 PM CDT Thu Apr 24 2025

MVFR to IFR conditions develop through the night and persist
through mid morning Friday. VFR conditions return by late morning
or early afternoon and persist through the evening. VIS

afternoon.

.MARINE...
Issued at 155 PM CDT Thu Apr 24 2025

A gentle to moderate breeze (BF 3-4) can be expected to continue
through this weekend. Onshore winds will increase early next week
becoming moderate to fresh (BF 4-5) with winds across the bays
and nearshore waters south of Port Aransas approaching Small Craft
Advisory conditions.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 155 PM CDT Thu Apr 24 2025

Winds and humidity levels will stay below critical thresholds
through next week. Recent rainfall across portions of South Texas
has reduced the fire risk across the region. However, elevated fire
thresholds could be approached early next week across portions of
the Rio Grande Plains when minimum afternoon relative humidity
values drop below 30% and ERC values trend above 65% across
Southwest Webb County.
